Camel Extreme Weather Liner
Camel is a leading designer, developer and manufacturer of tent products for the US government and military, and the company uses only the highest-quality materials that withstand tests of durability to match conditions in the field. For their Extreme Weather Liner, they chose Climashield® PROTECT-FR insulation. This flame retardant solution is utilized to minimize energy requirements for military-grade tents and relief-effort shelters, providing protection against extreme temperatures and momentary exposure to flames.
EXTREME COLD WEATHER BAG
The ECW bag is a single sleeping bag designed to be used in conjunction with the existing 3 Season (3S) bag or used on its own. When coupled with the proper layers, the ECW can be used in -25°C temperatures and it’s built to maintain this rating even with repeated washing and drying.
This bag is issued to the U.S. Armed Forces and firefighters, using Climashield® COMBAT to accomplish a superior warmth-to-weight ratio.
Poncho Liner
The multi-purpose Poncho Liner, held in high regard by the Army and Marines, can be used as a blanket, pillow, privacy screen or lightweight sleeping bag to provide warmth in mild temperatures – it’s light and packable, yet reasonably warm. For Climashield®, the intent was to improve warmth at a given weight, achieving approximately 15% more warmth at the same weight.
Arc’teryx Leaf
Hailing from Canada, Arc’teryx has an industry reputation for impeccable construction, superior design and constant innovation. The Leaf brand is built specifically for the extreme demands of military and tactical applications.

Nordic Combat Uniform
The NORDEFCO— consisting of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden — came together to develop a layer solution for all temperatures and activities that would be used by the Nordic militaries for operations in the harshest environments on the planet. The NCU Layering System, built to withstand temperatures as frigid as -19 degrees Celsius, is the flagship design from SIAMIDIS, employing Climashield® APEX insulation for protection against extreme cold.
Helikon-Tex
Helikon-Tex supplies law enforcement, security personnel, police, army, special forces and outdoor enthusiasts with a wide range of uniforms, tactical clothing, backpacks, boots and equipment.

Belgian Defence Clothing System
Adaptability is a key component of the Belgian Defence Clothing System (BDCS) – a multi-layered, technical insulating system that supports soldiers in varying missions and climates. Each piece of the system can work alone or be paired with other components as the environment requires. Using Climashield® APEX in the high loft jacket and pants, the BDCS was able to reduce weight by 25 percent from the previous version.
Polish Army Sleeping Bag
The Polish Army set out to evolve their sleeping bag for year-round use in various climate scenarios, which meant that it needed to account for cold weather, wet conditions, and breathability during more intense activity. Working with Callida, Climashield® engineered a multi-layer insulation system with a special finished Comfort 20D-Ripstop fabric from the Green Side collection.
